Defending A Hush Hush Alibi

Tue Jul 28, 2009, 4:45 PM
  • Mood: Joy
  • Listening to: The Spill Canvas- Hush Hush (iTunes Shuffle)
  • Reading: Memoirs of a Geisha
  • Eating: Peanut Butter
  • Drinking: Dr. Pepper Cherry
General Update
So the sketch of the Mad Hatter/Sweeney Todd is coming along, but probably won't be finished tonight. Maybe tomorrow? I don't have my camera tonight anyway. KJ took it to the Nickelback-Saving Abel-Papa Roach? concert in VA Beach. Probably not gonna get any shots, but it was worth a try and the tickets were free so either way she better have fun :D Possible poetry update though :gasp: I know. Shocking.

Other than that: Work is work...getting to that point where I have to shout "Bloody hell" every day at the sun and heat. Easily making 100 degrees every day I work lately. The storms seem to have no cooling effect either...though that might be because they always seem to hit when I'm not working (the small time zones that I'm not...crazy, I know.). Though...today was a good day for reading and I managed to finish The Book Thief. Great read.
The bloody hell bit might be due to the recent enjoyment of all 5 released Harry Potter DVDs. On my day off yesterday, we decided to watch them. It was quite entertaining, and I could answer one of my fellow employees questions about which one was my favorite. Definitely Goblet of Fire, followed closely by The Chamber of Secrets. Definitely a bigger fan of the first Dumbledore. Tragic that he died :[

So...to stop myself while I'm ahead...one last thing. Just because I told =mode-de-vie that I would...here's this little survey thing.

The Thing Everyone Else Seems To Be Doing
10 Things I Wish I Could Say To People:
1. You make my stress seem insignificant with your smile. I love when you smile. I love you.
2. I miss you. Though I thought I could hate you; I could not.
3. I miss you too. No more, no less, than number 3. Though you're slightly more dangerous to miss.
4. I miss you too. Your conversations with me are stale and forced now though. It makes me quite sad, yet I will never blame you since I'm quite aware it's mostly my fault.
5. I miss you all and all the silly sleepovers and crazy parties.
6. You have helped me so much. I will one day repay you if I can...you said you wanted a Lexus and a swimming pool, right?
7. I'm proud of you for getting your life together. I wish you could have done while I was in high school instead of after, but at least you're doing it now. I believe you even if it seems like just another lie. I know when you're serious about things.
8. I thank you all for accepting me through someone else...even if you don't truly know what I am to your best friend. I still appreciate you all accepting me as a friend so quickly.
9. Thanks for all the help with my car. You saved me that little bit of stress. Oh...and I love when you call me beautiful :]
10. I really appreciate the money, but that's not what I visit you for at all. I like doing little favors for you. I know you're just being goofy as always though. I know you have many more years and I'll be sure to keep visiting every time I can.

9 things about myself:
1. I actually think I'm a wonderful girlfriend.
2. I do not ever omit myself from those make mistakes and who have made mistakes. I avoid it to the best of my ability, but I am not perfect.
3. I'm becoming more and more positive about life, and I love it. **I'm going to keep this one even though it's originally =mode-de-vie's
4. I want to change things about myself all the time. I hate being routine. I especially love cutting my hair.
5. I want desperately to do all the things on my bucket list that is constantly growing. The most prominent goal is to travel to every continent at least once.
6. I feel like I'll never have the right major. I love what I study, but I worry about how much I'll make and how comfortable I'll be in the future.
7. I dwell on things. I wish I didn't, and I'm trying my best to rid myself of the habit.
8. I'm by no means a "girly-girl," but I often get the urge to dress-up/act that way to surprise people.
9. I say I'm socially awkward, yet people tell me I'm not. I still don't find myself trusting people that say I'm any bit "cool" or such.

8 ways to win my heart:
1. Communicate.
2. Have a sense of humor. Life's too short to be serious all the time.
3. Be sensitive, but also strong.
4. Have a serious soft spot for music. Bonus points if you can play.sing...just don't expect me to.
5. Be confident, at least somewhat. We all have our faults. Confidence is not to be confused with arrogance.
6. Be honest.
7. Be intelligent. I'm not asking for genius, but a little brains is helpful. Even more bonus points if you write or think in profound ways.
8. Be open-minded.

7 things that cross my mind a lot:
1. My family/friends. People I love.
2. Music
3. Money
4. Work
5. College
6. Ways I can be creative or romantic
7. Having the best life possible

6 things I do before I fall asleep:
1. Check my DA/Facebook/VCU Email--stuff on the net.
2. Take off shirt
3. Wash face
4. Take glasses off and set them on the windowsill
5. Fidget
6. Snuggle in the covers until I'm comfortable

5 places I want to visit:
1. London
2. Germany
3. Sydney
4. New York City
5. The beaches of California

4 things I'm wearing right now:
1. Friend bracelet

3. Midlothian gym shorts
4. Glasses

3 bands/artists that I listen to often:

I'm so glad you did this! Wasn't it fun? :D

I like how you swiped one of my answers. ;) I also have a bucket list- we'll have to share some of our things on it. :heart: Also, if you ever come to NYC, let me know- that's where I spend 8 months of the year going to school.

"Take me the way I am."
:iconcrepesculum:
It was.

;) It was a great answer! It just happened to apply to me too :]

We should compare! That would be so much fun. I absolutely love hearing what other people want to do...be warned though...I might swipe some of your goals too ;)

I will let you know. I'd love to visit...Everyone seems to have been except for me. :sigh:

"Take me the way I am."
:iconmode-de-vie:
:) Glad I could be of assistance.

I might totally swipe some of yours, too... so be warned! ;) Reply with some of yours, while I find the notebook mine is written in, :giggle:

It took me a while before I went to NYC for the first time... I was 18. Now I go to college on Long Island, so I'm in the city a lot. :heart: It's a fantastic place.

Haha. That's only fair.

Sadly I've never written mine down (maybe I should do that :hmm:), but some include:

1.Travel to every continent at least once.
2.Learn to stunt drive.
3.Be fluent in at least 3 other languages: German, French, and Japanese.
4.Order "the regular" at my favorite coffee shor or restaurant
5.Own a foreign sports car...I'm thinking Italian.

I'll think of more...You're still lucky. I'm almost 20 and I still haven't been :/

"Take me the way I am."
:iconmode-de-vie:
I'll be 20 soon, too! When's your birthday?! :)

Writing them down might be helpful... I had to do it once for a writing prompt in a class, so I just continued my list as I thought of things:

:bulletblue: Appear in a magazine
:bulletblue: Write a novel
:bulletblue: Be kissed under mistletoe
:bulletblue: Adopt a child
:bulletblue: Go skinny dipping
:bulletblue: Take a road trip
:bulletblue: Visit all 50 states
:bulletblue: Visit all Major League Baseball parks

...and those are just a few... I have quite a long list... :giggle: If you want to know any others, just ask!

January 17th :)

It really might. I'm surprised we didn't do something like this in my creative writing classes, but oh well. Now is a good time to start, right? Haha.

I'd love to know more, but we can exchange after I figure out more of mine, if you want. That will be my project for today :D

"Take me the way I am."
:iconmode-de-vie:
Oh, you're a little younger than I am. My birthday is November 16. :) (You actually have the same birthday as my dad, which is funny!)

Definitely! Never too late to start a list like this! ;)

Awesome! I think I have a few to add, as well... I think of them and forget to write them down, :lol:
